Re: ESWD_ST_CTL_ERROR_IN_EFFECT:

I guess the BUM (broadcast/unknown unicast) traffic on your trunk exceeds the 1Mbps limit you set. As discussed in some other threads, the is no single correct bandwidth value to configure in all networks.

You should look at your network (sniff the traffic in each VLAN) to verify what's the 'regular' BUM traffic level or why it's so big. Depending on network size & applications 1Mbps may be OK.

Unfortunately Junos does not reported what BUM traffic level triggered the storm-control and I'm not aware of any easy method to measure unknownunicast level (without sniffer).

Measuring is not super exact, so plus minus a couple of percent is a good idea.

If this is not production traffic that triggers storm control but lab generated traffic with a software generator, you have to know that these programs are very inaccurate to match the real bandwith. I had to learn this by hard and ended up always to use a real packet generator tool like Ixia. Everything else is not really reliable.
